Ok,

Only because many the people here are of the apropriate generation
to do such a thing.

Anyone have (or know of) some simple code (prfeferable awk) to parse
a project description text file and generate a PERT chart. The obvious
tool would be using dot (Graphviz), ideally it would also do the topological
sort and CPM (Critical path method) analysis.

Don't make me use MS Project, please...
